  • Thanks Keith for this presentation, it was very helpful. I have a better idea now of where I am going and when to get there. I am so glad that I have joined iUniverse!
  • Mr. Ogorek: I enjoyed your presentation at the Writer's Digest Conference in January in New York. It is very helpful. My hope is to get my book noticed and it becomes a best seller. Thank you for your insight. My Book: We Smoked Our Sister is about the South in the 1960's. It looks at the memories of a wonderful lady that lived during that time. It focuses on family, relationships, culture, history and communications. It is wonderfully intriguing and delightfully funny. It is a thought provoking collection of Short Stories that is written on a timeline. Thank you again for your insight.
  • Certain genres defy pithy description. I have written two novels of medical education/training in the 1960's--lots of 60's tumult along with the rigors of medical education. In view of the popularity of medical TV shows and now Mad Men it's quite frustrating trying to get an agent to give due consideration to my oeuvre as it is both medical fiction and historical fiction. Hence, I'm doing supported self-publishing.
